Definitions

  • the invention relates to a Drehmomentabstützvorraum for mounting a provided with a hub motor drive wheel on a wheelchair.
  • FIG. 5 A typical example of a wheelchair for a sick or handicapped person is in Fig. 5 shown.
  • a known wheelchair 400 has two large wheels 200, each having a gripping ring 220, by means of which the wheels can be driven by hand, that are manually driven.
  • two significantly smaller wheels 230 are mounted on freely pivoting castors.
  • the large wheels 200 are often designed to be easily removable.
  • axles 240 and corresponding attachment means 250 are provided, by means of which the wheels 200 can be easily attached to the wheelchair frame 410 and removed again.
  • auxiliary drive devices Such an auxiliary drive device, as in the FIGS. 7 to 10 is shown, for example, from the DE 198 57 786 C1 known.
  • auxiliary drive devices As wheels 300 formed with a hub motor 330, also generally have a gripping ring 320, over which the person sitting in the wheelchair person can put the wheel in rotation with their hands.
  • the electric hub motor 330 of the auxiliary drive device is driven in response to the torque, which is manually introduced into the gripping ring 320, for delivering a supplementary electrically generated torque, that is, an assist torque.
  • the torque introduced manually into the gripping ring 320 is detected and supplied to an electronic controller, which then controls the electric motor designed as a hub motor 330 so that it emits an electrically generated torque.
  • the from the DE 198 57 786 C1 known auxiliary drive device is designed as a self-contained unit in which the drive unit including a corresponding stator and a rotor of the electric motor, the power supply in the form of corresponding rechargeable batteries and the electronic control are provided in the wheel hub.
  • torque support of a hub motor in an electrically driven wheel of a wheelchair is from the DE 199 49 405 C1 known.
  • a torque arm is arranged on the wheelchair, are formed on the three webs.
  • the Rear side of the stator of the electric motor of the electric drive device is provided with a plurality of grooves.
  • the webs of the torque arm provided on the wheelchair engage in the grooves on the rear side of the stator and in this way constitute a torque support.
  • Auxiliary drive devices and electrically driven wheels for wheelchairs of the type described above are products that are designed for economic use for use on a variety of different wheelchair frame. This has heretofore required that, for a given such auxiliary drive device in the form of an electric hub motor impeller, separate and specific torque support be developed for each wheelchair frame. This requires a considerable amount of time and costs.
  • the market of manually driven wheelchairs in Germany alone includes several hundred different models.
  • an electric auxiliary drive device for a wheelchair user is often only necessary or therapeutically useful if the wheelchair user has long used a first only manually driven wheelchair.
  • a typical example of this is the decreasing physical strength of elderly wheelchair users, which makes it at some point necessary or at least desirable, the purely manual force by a supplement electric assistive power.
  • a wheelchair user who is faced with the decision, if necessary, to use such an electric auxiliary drive device, this could try first.
  • this due to the virtually unmanageable variety and number of different wheelchairs, this is usually not possible because an available on the market auxiliary drive device can not be mounted without a specially designed for this purpose axle on any wheelchair frame. The wheelchair user involved in such a decision must therefore test the auxiliary drive device in a trial wheelchair unfamiliar to him, which is generally perceived as unpleasant.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to improve the situation set out above and to provide a technical possibility that allows a wheelchair user to test provided with a hub motor drive wheels on his own wheelchair.
  • the inventive solution is based in the concept of providing a Drehmomentabstützvorraum for mounting a provided with a hub motor drive wheel to a wheelchair, which allows an at least temporary fixation of an electric auxiliary drive device of the type in question on a wheelchair, to the previously only manually driven wheels mounted in a simple and fast way.
  • the torque support device according to the invention is designed for this purpose so that in virtually all on the market wheelchairs a fixation with appropriate torque support is possible and yet can be fixed quickly and safely.
  • the mounting element is preferably designed as a circular flange, which preferably has a plurality of slots.
  • Fig. 1 shows a radial side view of an embodiment of a torque support device 1 according to the invention with a circular flange 10, a first circular cylindrical bolt 20 and a second circular cylindrical bolt 30.
  • the flange 10 is a mounting member according to the present invention.
  • the flange 10 preferably has a plurality of slots 11 which have a curved course in the illustrated embodiment. It is understood that the elongated holes 11 may have a variety of shapes including a straight course. It is also understood that depending on the shape and course and a single slot 11 may be sufficient.
  • the elongated holes 11 are used for the variable attachment of the two bolts 20 and 30 to the flange 10, wherein both bolts 20, 30 on its in the assembled state of the flange 10 facing end side threaded pins 5 have.
  • the bolts 20, 30 are freely slidable in the oblong holes 11.
  • the flange 10 is rotatably connected to a stator (not shown) of a hub motor, which serves as an electric drive of an electrically driven drive wheel 300 of a wheelchair 400 according to the present invention, for example via cylindrical pins 15.
  • the attachment of the flange 10 to an electrically driven Drive wheel 300, as exemplified in the FIGS. 8 to 10 is shown, can be done via screws 16.
  • the flange plate 10 can also be fastened via one or more magnets to a stator or stator part of the hub motor of an electrically drivable drive wheel 300. This has the advantage that the flange can be mounted without tools if necessary.
  • Fig. 4 shows in a sectional side view of a wheelchair 400 to which an electrically driven drive wheel 300 by means of the Drehmomentabstützvorraum according to Fig. 1 is ready for use.
  • the bolts 20, 30 are in the slots 11 of the flange 10 so shifted and fixed at the desired locations on the screws 5 and nuts 40 so that they abut Points or points 410a and 410b of the wheelchair frame to ensure rotation against both rotation of the stator of the hub motor 330 of the drive wheel 300 in the forward direction of the wheelchair 400 and in the reverse direction. It can thus be made in a simple and fast way, a fixation by positive engagement between the bolts 20, 30 and the wheelchair frame 410. By appropriate arrangement of the nuts 40 in guides along the slots 11, the fixation by simply rotating the bolts 20, 30 can be effected.
  • a conversion of the type described above takes place in particular when a wheelchair, which was previously provided with wheels 200, which can be driven only manually via a gripping ring 220, is now to be provided with electric auxiliary drive devices in the form of electrically driven wheels 300.
  • Such electrically driven impeller 300 is in the Fig. 8 to 10 shown. It also has a gripping ring 320, via which manual driving force can be introduced, and additionally an electric hub motor 330.
